Stefan's Florilegium files for May 2008

THLord Stefan li Rous has posted updates to Stefan's Florilegium for May 2008.

Greetings to the Gentles across the Known World,

Here is a copy of my monthly Florilegium article for May, detailing
what is new in the Florilegium this month.

If you appreciate the material which is available in the Florilegium,
and you run a website, please consider adding a link to the
Florilegium or any of the sections or files inside it. This will help
others who might also find it useful to find it and make use of it.

Thanks,
Stefan

A Blending of the Past and Present

Over the past seventeen years in an ongoing effort, I have been
collecting bits of useful information from various newsgroups, mail
lists and articles submitted to me by their authors. In order to make
this information available to others, I have placed this information
in a collection of files I call Stefan's Florilegium.

I am always interested in new articles. If you have written an
article that would be of interest to others in the SCA, please send
it to me for possible inclusion in the Florilegium. A&S documentation
and class handouts will also often work out well.

I am also interested in volunteers who might be interested in helping
me maintain the Florilegium. Everything from collecting materials,
editing and web work is needed. Again, please contact me for more
details.
